Tikait Calls Owaisi as ‘Belagam Sand’ and ‘B-Team Of BJP’

Hyderabad : Bharatiya Kisan Union leader Rakesh Tikait on Thursday while addressing farmers rally at Hyderabad, indirectly without taking name of All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen president Asaduddin Owaisi called him “belagam sand.”

Not only did the farmer union leader indirectly take swipes at the Hyderabad, but also called the AIMIM “the B team of the Bharatiya Janata Party”.

“You have an unbridled bull here who is helping the BJP. Tie him down here itself. He helps BJP the most. Don’t let him out of here. He says something else but has some other goal. Don’t let him go out of Hyderabad and Telangana,” Tikait told the gathering, or Maha Dharna, in Hyderabad.

The BKU spokesperson further said that Owaisi is the ‘Chacha Jaan’ (uncle) of the BJP.

“He tries to divide Hindus and Muslims in India. We do not take the name of the disease. Wherever there is an election, he goes there. He is in Uttar Pradesh now,” Tikait said, according to news agency ANI.

Meanwhile Rakesh Tikait said that the farmers union has written to the central government, levelling that the centre is not committing to the demands of Minimum Support Price (MSP) on crops, despite Prime Minister Narendra Modi repealing the 3 new contentious farm laws.

“We have written a letter to the Centre a few days ago but we have not received any answer yet. They do not want to talk about the MSP because it will benefit the farmers throughout the whole country. The government has not responded to the letter yet,” Tikait said.

He added that their issues with the Centre still persist.

“The government of India did not have any conversation with us after January 22 when the last meeting was held. Now they have decided to repeal the laws. But our issues remain which include the MSP, compensation for the death of 700 farmers and Shahid Smarak of the dead farmers. The government should make a committee to address other issues like the electricity amendment bill, pesticide bill and others,” he reportedly said.
